Where to visit in Kenya
Our travel experts have collated their top recommendations of where to visit in Kenya.
Masai Mara National Park
Located in southern Kenya, the Masai Mara is one of the most iconic safari parks in all of Africa. The endless plains and vast savannahs entice thousands of tourists every year, and rightly so! The Masai Mara has some of the best game viewing opportunities on the continent, with abundant elephant, buffalo, giraffe, and antelope. Big cat populations are thriving so lion prides, cheetahs and leopards are regularly sighted. During the months of July to November, the wildebeest herds can be seen inside the reserve and outer conservancies which is an incredible spectacle.
Amboseli National Park
Amboseli National Park is often referred to as the the ‘Land of the Giants’ because of its huge elephant populations. This park is also home to some of the largest tusker elephants left on the continent. Along with good elephant sightings, there is an abundance of giraffe, zebra, lion, leopard and over 600 species of bird. The park has an incredible backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania – in fact, this is one of the best viewpoints of Africa’s largest mountain. A safari here can be a stand-alone destination or in an itinerary combining the Masai Mara or Tsavo National Park.
Nairobi
The capital of Kenya, Nairobi, is where a safari itinerary will inevitably start or finish. That said, there is more to do than just check in and out of a hotel. The hustle-and-bustle can be intriguing to many travelers and some activities are not to be missed. The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust operates the most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program in the world, and is a must-do. Other places to visit include the Giraffe Center (where you can stay over night at the Giraffe Manor), and the Karen Blixen museum.
Samburu National Reserve
Located in the Kenyan Rift Valley, Samburu National Reserve is a park offering great safari experiences and opportunities to see rarer species. Samburu is famous for the Samburu Five which include rare northern specialist species – the Grevy Zebra, Somali Ostrich, Reticulated Giraffe, Gerenuk and the Beisa Oryx. Along with these rarer animals, travelers can expect to see elephant, lion, leopard, antelope, and sometimes wild dog. Samburu is a dry park with high temperatures so most of the game congregates around the Ewaso Nyiro River.
The Laikipia Plateau
The Laikipia Plateau is an an expansive area of conservancies, ranches and rolling farmlands in central Kenya. The three main airstrips are Lewa, Nanyuki and Loisaba, so the park can easily be combined in a flying itinerary. Although the wildlife is not prolific or dense, especially compared to the plains of the Masai Mara, the Laikipia Plateau is all about expansive space, unique experiences and remote game-viewing. It is a great destination for active travelers or families traveling with children as the camps and lodges offer activities like tubing on the river Ewaso Nyiro, quad biking, night drives, camel riding and more.
Kenyan coast
Kenya is fortunate to home some beautiful white-sand beaches and azure waters. Mombasa is the quintessential tropical port of the country, located on the eastern coastline. To the north and sound of Mombasa are stunning beaches – one of the most iconic is Diani Beach. With glistening sands hugged by lush forests, Diani Beach is somewhere for everyone – families, honeymooners and water-sports enthusiasts to name a few. It is very straight forward to combine a Kenya safari with the coast, involving a short flight from the bush airstrip to Mombasa. This is the perfect R&R after your exhilarating safari.
